Yes the top is finished and will remain open to the elements. The exterior is (pretty much) complete.

Great update Cyber. I find this one of the most interesting projects on the go just now, not just because of the unusual superstructure, but also the logistics involved with the bus station. They are making fantastic progress.

What's with the steel and wooden 'curtain' at the bottom? Protection for the road below I assume?
